Brain Implant Meets Cyberpunk: Neurotechnology between Science Fiction and Application

In our event, we will exchange ideas about neurotechnology between people who approach the field from very different angles. Award-winning science fiction author Michael Iwoleit will read from one of his works, sharing his view of opportunities and dangers of neurotechnology. In a following discussion, he will be joined by scientists from the University of Freiburg who work in this field. Together, they will explore the biological, technological and philosophical implications of neurotechnology.
